Humm Mine was powder blue from the factory, I might have to paint it a different colour now.............I have always fancied screaming yellow Alan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ashley James Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Mine was green, but I saw the light and painted it red cos that's what it left the factory as. The trouble with green is that it reminds me of those bearded people who eat flatulence inducing food, wear sandalls and lecture the rest of us on preserving the planet and riding bicycles! Otherwise it's a nice colour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sidescreen Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Welcome to the "powder blue" club... Well done! Wishing you many happy miles. Raymond Quote Link to post Share on other sites
billg Posted June 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Thanks for all the nice comments!! I do admit to being inspired by Raymonds car After seeing it at Malvern and Harrogate, plus the Dozens of Powder Blue cars in OZ. This car was imported by the Beers , MG dealers In Essex? About 1989 I think and sold to someone in NI Hence the Irish reg. Not sure if DVLA will let me Keep the age related Irish no? Car was laid up in about 1992 and then was semi dismantled Before I found it just 4 miles from where I live Been working on it for about 8 years off on on, with most Work having been carried out in the last two years. Much of the work has been done by myself except Coachwork , which was carried outbt Eyemouth Autocentre Who have painted other cars for me in the past. Mods inclue Lhd to Rhd , R&P, hi-torque starter And small Japanese alternator. The car was indeed exported as a Powder Blue factory Car to Texas. It still had Texan sand stuck to it held together By the years of oil leaks all helping preserve The chassis! Car still has all it's original panels except fronts Of the floors and a new bonnet which had a muchbetter leading edge. Also modified the rearfloor with a wooden "seat" / lockers to hold speakers and allow the easy carrying of Our small dog cage! Hope to get to Malvern with the car, either with or Without the Hardtop which needs assembled. Regards Bill G north berwick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
